Council backs two culvert grant applications for regional infrastructure funds

City of Central City Council · August 26, 2026

Summary

Council approved resolutions supporting two culvert improvement projects — Blackwater Bayou and Greenville Springs/Port Hudson — as applications to the Delta Regional Authority Community Infrastructure Fund; both resolutions passed on roll call votes.

Council unanimously moved to support two culvert projects by passing resolutions to back grant applications to the Delta Regional Authority Community Infrastructure Fund. Councilmember Wells introduced the Blackwater Bayou Culverts resolution and Councilmember Roy introduced the Greenville Springs/Port Hudson culvert resolution. Both motions were seconded and passed on roll call.

The resolutions are intended to position the city for external grant funding to address localized infrastructure needs and culvert improvements. Staff and council did not identify local matching funds during the discussion; the items were presented as grant application support resolutions rather than contract awards.

Council recorded the roll call votes in favor of both resolutions. Staff will proceed with the grant application process and return with updates as the Delta Regional Authority application process requires.
